South Alabama's softball team moved up five spots to No. 14 in this week's USA Today/NFCA Top 25 poll and three spots to No. 16 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Top 25 poll. (Mike Kittrell/mkittrell@al.com)

Florida, Tennessee and Arizona State hold the top three spots, respectively, in both polls.

The highest-ranked team in the state is Alabama at No. 11 in the USA Today poll and No. 10 in the ESPN.com poll, but both positions represents falls for the Crimson Tide from last week. Auburn earned a No. 25 ranking in the USA Today poll but is not ranked in the ESPN.com poll.

Louisiana-Lafayette, the preseason pick to win the Sun Belt Conference title, is 9-5-1 and ranked No. 24 by USA Today and No. 25 by ESPN.com. The Jags and Ragin' Cajuns are the only Sun Belt teams in either poll.
